El florido pensil
"El Florido Pensil" is a humorous reflection of the education of several generations of Spaniards from the 1940s to the 1960s. Based on the book of the same name by AndrĂ©s Sopeña, it evokes, from the present, his memories of that time: everyday school, local radio, Roberto AlcĂĄzar's comics, Thursday cinema with Franco opening swamps and "Yon GĂŒein" chasing and killing Indians.
Overview
"El Florido Pensil" is a humorous reflection of the education of several generations of Spaniards from the 1940s to the 1960s. Based on the book of the same name by AndrĂ©s Sopeña, it evokes, from the present, his memories of that time: everyday school, local radio, Roberto AlcĂĄzar's comics, Thursday cinema with Franco opening swamps and "Yon GĂŒein" chasing and killing Indians. Through the childish eyes of a child Sopeña (Daniel Rubio) and his schoolmates, we discover a way of understanding the world, society and a Spain "of glories and flowery pensil", as the national anthem of those years used to sing.
